Transcribe
Our new writing project, celebrating trans+ experiences. Supported by Arts Council England.
Transcribe is a writing project, providing paid writing and development time to four trans+ writers from Hampshire & surrounding regions.
Our writers will be supported to develop a 10 - 15 minute piece of writing on trans+ experiences, ready to be performed as part of Trans History Week on 7th May at the John Hansard Gallery. Their work will also be recorded and published in a limited print run anthology.
We are proud to be able to offer each writer their own dedicated experienced trans+ editor and mentor, including the fabulous Tabby Lamb and Ri Baroche.
They will then have the opportunity to work with QueerAF to hone their writing and communication skills, and supported to publish a think piece as part of their Queer Gaze series.
We are also looking for a trans+ artist to create a series of designs for this project.
This will include a poster and social media graphics to help to publicize the live event, as well as complementary images to the writing work to be printed in the anthology
This project has a quick turn around time so the deadline to apply is Thursday 2nd April at midday.
Successful applicants will be paid £400 each for the commission. Plus editing and mentoring time, publishing in the anthology, and video recording of the work.
